The "telco guys" probably did something non-industry standard and reversed send 
and receive in the jack that they plugged the CAT5 into.  Sure it works, sure 
it is easier, sure it is not the correct way of doing things.
 
Thanks,
Steve

at&t (formerly SBC, formerly Southwestern Bell, formerly AT&T) just came out 
and installed my PRI.  FYI, they used Cat 5e cable.  No special T1 cabling that 
costs a fortune to buy somewhere, just plain old Cat 5e cable.  Guess what 
guys?  If they are using this as customers' sites, they are probably using it 
elsewhere. It's only as good as the weakest link, so you can go out and spend 
lots of money on "T1 cable", or just use Cat 5e like the telco guys do.
